Jiang Feng immediately withdrew his gaze.

In such a situation, his seemingly affectionate exchange of glances with Mo Zixun always gave him a sense of infidelity, and felt quite apologetic to Nangong Qingcheng.

"Jiang Feng, let me help you." 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Mu Yanluo blushed as she stepped forward, wanting to take the ingredients from Jiang Feng's hands.

Among the many sisters at home, her situation was the most sensitive, and her mentality the most humble.

But everyone disregarded past grievances, sincerely accepting her, giving her the chance to integrate into this big family. She was truly touched and cherished it greatly.

"No need, you all can relax and have fun. I'll handle it myself."

After speaking, Jiang Feng changed his shoes and walked straight to the kitchen.

Mo Zixun's beautiful eyes on the sofa flowed with charm, and she suddenly commented to Nangong Qingcheng quite purposely, "Qingcheng, you said Brother Feng's cooking is good, I can hardly imagine. How about I go in and check it out?"

"Oh, don't. Zixun, you're a guest after all. It's not proper to ask a guest to enter the kitchen. I'll go in and help him later."

Nangong Qingcheng was unaware of Mo Zixun's ulterior motives and spoke purely from her perspective.

"Actually, you shouldn't treat me as a guest. We're all sisters now, and I'll certainly visit you guys again in Jiangdong. Are you still going to be so distant with me?" Mo Zixun said with a playful smile.

"Well, that's true. But what's so great about watching someone cook? You're so nice and fragrant, Zixun; you wouldn't want to catch any kitchen smells."

This time, Nangong Qingcheng did have a bit of selfishness, as she knew Jiang Feng's cooking was quite captivating, which might make it "not so good" for Mo Zixun to see.

Seeing Nangong Qingcheng persist in not wanting her to go over, Mo Zixun had no choice but to drop the subject.

After all, she was at someone else's home and couldn't be too casual.

"Zixun, Xiaoxiao, you sit tight. I'll go help that guy with the cooking so we can eat sooner."

Saying this, Nangong Qingcheng stood up herself, boldly headed to the kitchen without a hint of shyness.

Seeing this, Liu Shiyuan also wanted to follow along to lend a hand, but unfortunately, her culinary skills were now inferior to Nangong Qingcheng, so she had to hold back.

So, under the gaze of the sisters, with a bit of "motivation" in her mind, Nangong Qingcheng calmly made her way to the kitchen, opened the door, and closed it behind her.

Inside the kitchen.

At this time, Jiang Feng was washing vegetables. Seeing Nangong Qingcheng come in, he smiled and asked, "Why are you here?"

"Hmph! What is it? Is this your private territory, and I can't enter?" Nangong Qingcheng glared at him and put her hands on her hips.

That adorable appearance directly amused Jiang Feng.

"What are you saying? I just saw that you were having a good chat with Mo Zixun earlier," Jiang Feng said with a smile.

"Jiang Feng, I couldn't tell. You're rescuing beautiful women now, even for Mo Zixun! So you're the bodyguard who fought at Mo Zixun's signing event? And afterward, you helped her solve her troubles. You're something! No wonder she calls you 'Brother Feng' so affectionately!" Nangong Qingcheng huffed.

Jiang Feng's movements paused slightly, then he laughed again, "Did she tell you this?"

"Obviously! We've been so busy these past few days; otherwise, we'd surely see you on TV!" Nangong Qingcheng pretended to be sulky, her little mouth pouting high.

"I actually met her a while ago in the Provincial City and helped her unintentionally once. Let's just say she has good luck." Jiang Feng stated concisely, yet didn't disclose much about his relationship with Mo Zixun.

"You unintentionally helped a big star and call it good luck? You've got some nerve!"

Nangong Qingcheng was practically at a loss for words. She thought Mo Zixun wanted to befriend Jiang Feng out of gratitude, but didn't expect Jiang Feng to be so unfazed and treat Mo Zixun as an ordinary girl.

"Enough about her. Looking at you like this, why do I feel like you're jealous?"

Jiang Feng asked with a playful smile.

"Me? Jealous of you? Keep dreaming! Do you think that's possible?" Nangong Qingcheng's eyes briefly flickered, yet she still stood defiantly with her little waist, refusing to back down.

"Is that so?"

Jiang Feng blinked and suddenly put down the vegetables, walking towards Nangong Qingcheng.

Nangong Qingcheng blushed!

She knew what Jiang Feng wanted to do!

Because she remembered clearly how many times Jiang Feng had "bullied" her in the kitchen!

Every time it was when no one else was around, this guy would greedily make moves on her!

On one hand, she was very shy, afraid that other sisters might suddenly come in and catch her in the act!

On the other hand, she had some familiarity and nostalgia for that feeling of enjoyment...

That's why she seemed a bit hesitant and reluctant. Otherwise, why would she intentionally send the other sisters away and sneak in herself, as if deliberately giving Jiang Feng a chance to misbehave?

"Jiang Feng, what are you up to again, don't mess around. Everyone's waiting for you to cook, you... you..."

As Jiang Feng got closer, Nangong Qingcheng maintained a serious facade, but her heartbeat raced wildly. Instinctively, she retreated.

She wanted to push Jiang Feng away, but as soon as her fair hand touched Jiang Feng's chest, the scorching, firm torso sent a shiver through her, unable to move away. Her delicate face, soft as a rose petal, turned a deep pink.

"What… what exactly are you trying to do?"

Nangong Qingcheng finally mustered up the courage, staring at Jiang Feng up close. Her body quickly heated up, yet her face still tried to feign sternness.

"Qingcheng, since being away these days, did you miss me?" Jiang Feng teased with a mischievous smile, lightly pressing his hands on Nangong Qingcheng's shoulders as he asked.

"I didn't! You've only been gone a few days, haven't you called? Besides, I've gotten used to it..." Nangong Qingcheng said, half-heartedly, yet once again in the face of Jiang Feng's gaze, she admitted defeat, choosing to look away.

Because Jiang Feng's gaze was incredibly invasive, it felt like he was going to devour her whole. And being so close, Jiang Feng's masculine scent was intoxicating, uncontrollably so. She feared unleashing herself and surrendering to Jiang Feng.

"But I missed you." Jiang Feng spoke gently.

This was indeed true. No matter the brilliance outside, the one he forever cherished and adored in his heart was always Nangong Qingcheng!

During this period, a philanderer as he might be, he did make quite a few mistakes, yet always held his ground!

Because whenever he thought of Nangong Qingcheng, he never truly crossed the line.

Being a flirt didn't equate to being indiscriminate!

Yet Jiang Feng was, after all, a normal man. Facing so much stimulation and temptation externally, he had been suppressing himself forcibly. Now in this isolated space alone, in the presence of a charming wife like her, if he could still resist, it would indeed be miraculous!

"You… you…" Nangong Qingcheng wanted to mildly struggle, but her delicate body was immediately pulled into Jiang Feng's embrace.

She could clearly hear Jiang Feng's fervent heartbeat, and in that instant, she felt herself getting lost…
